Hinkle Fades the Ace

Level 16 : 2,500/5,000, 500 ante

Grant Hinkle was all in for 220,000 in the cutoff when we got to his table. As another player at the table told it, he had gotten in a preflop raising war, making it 40,000 after a middle player opened to 14,000. Hinkle's opponent followed up with 110,000, and Hinkle put in the five-bet rip. His opponent thought about a minute and called.

Hinkle: {k-Diamonds}{k-Clubs}
Opponent: {a-Clubs}{k-Spades}

The community came {9-Spades}{9-Hearts}{j-Clubs}{6-Clubs}{q-Spades}, no threat to Hinkle, who was part of a five-way chop in this event last year and looks like a favorite to see Day 2 after the big hold.
